Abstract

This review critically examines Sanatan Gandhi: Bapu Se Vaishwik Samvād by Ambika Dutt Sharma
and Vishwanath Mishra. The review will assess the authors’ contribution to the discourse on peace, violence, and
Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy, while exploring intersections with selected modern thinkers. It highlights the
book’s strengths in critiquing modernity and presenting Gandhi as a relevant guide in today’s world, including as
a cultural analyst. It suggests potential challenges regarding cultural bias and oversimplification, urging a more
inclusive exploration of Gandhi's philosophy and ideals rather than limiting him to Advaitin persona.
